the vulture fund - steohen frey


Sort of a john grisham wannabe, but as grisham can make most of us non lawyers understand whats going on despite the jargon, this book, more about finance and banking and cheating going on at the top level, left me reading slowly in a few places at the beginning, as I was trying to piece it together and understand it.
Well after that, it was exciting enough a read, as a young partner in a wall street firm finds himself initially part of a high risk investment fund, then finds himself part of a big deceipt and his life in danger.
With help from a few different sources, namely, the beautiful young girl just out of her mba, his best friend from his own growing up days in the orphanage who is now part of the secret service, and most of all, the businesswoman he works with whom he finds is part of the betrayal, the fraud is uncovered, and the day is saved. Enjoyable.
